So after fighters was released they haven't had much love, with the addition of Fleet Carriers and the need for mining of fuel how about a new fighter with micro-prospecting limpets that we could deploy from our mining ships to deploy in the field with instructions to go prospect asteroids for a material that were looking for....
We could then carry on mining the roid then and follow the trail of our fighter where they have marked asteroids for us to mine
We would have to chose to sacrifice cargo space against the speed of mining the field
